I actually had this on me for a while... I was going to add a background, but gave up halfway through :lWas debating whether to upload or not this morning... And the evil side of me won, so here it is! xD

the girl looks really realistic so you did a good job on that. I really like her hair and eyes. It's obvious that you toke your time on this piece. She is very young looking, which is another reason why I like her. Is she an original character or based on someone elses work? What is her name? As I said, I really like the color of her eyes. You should definitely continue making more work. The only reason you lost half a star on technique is because you didn't add a background. I would suggest a night time sky, with something supernatural like a witch or a vampire, since the girl seems surreal herself. You should definitely make more drawings of her, you've done a fantastic job. I love the amount of detail you've put into this piece.

The picture has, without a doubt, great use of shading and lighting through out the piece. It is smooth and not over complex on the skin, leaving the detail on the jacket and shirt more defined.

Some of the main things I want to point out that flaws the piece is that there is an absence in shading in the minor areas. Between the ending of the sleeves for the jacket and the arms, a small line of shading is missing. It is on both arms and it kinda chips at the 3D illusion. The necklace is also missing some shading, and it kind of gives the impression that it is an add-on during the finishing stages. The torso is fine, even though it would have looked better if you increased the intensity of the shading on the left side, since you established that light is coming from the right side of the character. These are all minor little details though, that don't take away from the drawing, but it does chip away at how great it is.

"I'm here because your piece was in the group's critique requested folder."This is beautifully done, I think the plain background is appropriate, it makes her stand out as it should. The only possible flaw is the eyes have to much blue in them. When viewing the image my attention keeps going to the eyes only and not the whole image.Other than that it is outstanding.

I couldn't write a critique because the critique window that pops up won't fit on my browser window (And I have a NORMAL laptop -_-) and doesn't scroll to let me see the post box, so I'll write it here. I really really enjoy pieces like this. Art like yours is how /I/ want to draw at some point. I'm very shabby at clothing and hair and I'll never understand how people can make semi real work like this. I also enjoy the lighting, something I'm also bad at. I'm bad at that and lightsource, but you seem to got that on point lol.

Ahhhh... I knew something was off -.-Didn't really finish this pic. I was going to add a background (which was where the blue light was going to come from) but gave up half way ><I just noticed I didn't even add a zipper.... /Le fail...

didn't notice the missing zipper, it looks fine without it, the only thing that seemed off was the lighting, which is an easy fix for sure!the picture looks beautiful, you shouldn't be so discouraged so easily
